KT, Lance, Bill and I went for a sled recovery mission yesterday.. I guess you could say we made it halfway out with Lance's blown 800R. KT and the turbo HCR came through pretty nice, after we took out the motor and other essential parts we were able to get the machine halfway up the last ridge. From here it is a 10 mile down hill tow out. We got the engine, pipes, clutches and tons of other parts out at least. The last climb is just too gnarly... we need some cold weather so we can hit it first light on a cold morning when things are setup better.

We have to go way way up there. Over those corniced ridges
Mid engine removal, Lance still smiling.
200 lbs of ski-doo engine and parts. Ready to tow
As far as we got, going on 7pm in this photo.. halfway up the last ridge/hill climb. 45-50 degree, here we have used the sleds as anchors staggered up the hill. Using rope, snatch block and pullies we got it this far.
